Hi! New to Linux, so please pardon this question. How did you manage to upgrade lvm2 and reinstall the kernel? I don't have a prompt there...

The boot process unlocks the encrypted volume with LUKS just fine, but then prints "Reading all physical volumes. (this might take a while)" and keeps repeating that line. I've left it running for several hours and all it does is repeat that line. Booting the old kernel from hardy (linux-image-2.6.24-23-generic) works just fine. My laptop is a Sony Vaio VGN-TZ150N with Intel chipsets and is using the ata_piix module. My installation uses a LUKS/dm-crypt volume that uses LVM to share the encrypted volume between root and swap. This is *not* the problem where it eventually drops to busybox/initramfs and typing exit will successfully boot. With this problem the boot never drops into busybox no matter what value I use for rootdelay. xen@transitory:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.10 Release: 8.10 xen@transitory:~$ apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic: Installed: 2.6.27-11.23 Candidate: 2.6.27-11.23 Version table: *** 2.6.27-11.23 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid-proposed/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/317334/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
